3. Godzilla (2014)

When Hollywood decided to take another crack at brining Japan’s most famous city-stomping monster back to the big screen, there were inevitably going to be some changes. After all, the 1998 Matthew Broderick vs. Godzilla movie was a failure in pretty well every conceivable way. However, the choice to treat a movie about a giant radioactive lizard stepping on buildings as sincere and earnest drama was an odd one. It’s not as if the people who watched the classic Godzilla movies did so for the relatable human drama. Nope, they giggled at the silly spectacle, which is the one thing that 2014 audiences inexplicably weren’t allowed to do at their Godzilla.
